Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.

Nicely painted new troops about to be used for the first time? No doubt they will evaporate at the first Krupp salvo or needlegun volley. It's traditional.

But they are pretty!

Well, I did do some more work on them this morning, and will carry on this evening with horses and helmets, then basing which will take time to dry between texture and drybrushes, so I am looking at ........ Friday.

Finally got the dismounted stand completed. Just for the Army of the North, dragoons dismount to fire in winter gear. Realisation!

The gap between the horses and the firing line really works.

I think the inspiration, effort, and result deserve a damn good round of applause.

A great little vignette, Leman. I like the way that some troopers have opted to wear their kepis.
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.

Well done, TAFKADP!  Really like the idea, and it's realisation.

Thanks for the comments folks. My next project of this ilk will be mounted and dismounted Prussian hussars, and then mounted and dismounted French chasseurs a cheval. I've not seen any evidence yet for  other dismounted units in the FPW.

Isn't there a picture somewhere of dismounted Uhlans?
